Five Little Things the PS4 Needs

As the arrival of the PlayStation 4 creeps closer, expectations for PlayStation’s next console remain high. From blockbuster game titles to redesigned interfaces, the PlayStation 4 looks to improve and expand upon what Sony has learned during the life of the PlayStation 3. Yet, while many large changes are incoming, there are still many smaller ways to enhance the next console.

1. DayZ standalone 2. Heavenly Sword II 3. Bushido Blade 4. If I got these I'm good.

MariaHelFutura4045d ago

Plus, the DayZ standalone looks to be coming to PS4, pending it's not a complete failure on PC (which it won't be). So I'm already pretty happy.

ThatCanadianGuy5144045d ago

Yes.And Dean hall seems keen on making it happen.
DayZ on PS4 would be great.

I prefer PC for my gaming but all my friends play on console.PS4 does seem to have some amazing social features soo..maybe i won't miss Steam too much.

MariaHelFutura4045d ago

I honestly haven't been this excited for a game in a long time. The standalone version looks sooooo amazing.

NaAsAr4045d ago

i 2nd heavenly sword 2. :)

WickedLester4045d ago

GOD yes!! The lack of RPG's this generation has been the single biggest letdown for me, especially considering how many incredible RPG's we had on PS1 and PS2! Yes there have been some good ones this generation but the selection has been sparse compared to previous generations. Lets hope that we can get back to having a good selection of RPG's next generation!

Not for me, I'm 100% physical media all of the time.

jwillj2k416m ago

I hate that I have to keep calling this out, but your physical disks mean nothing if the game code attempts to connect to a server prior to playing.

Hugodastrevas12m ago

And that happens when? I'm playing completely offline here, stellar Blade to be more precise.
I'm sorry but I've never run into that imaginary problem you're talking about, I'm not saying it doesn't happen, but it has never happened to me.

spicelicka3h ago

So you have to buy the game and can only stream to the PS5 devices using PS plus premium? What is the point of that. Much more useful when you can stream to other devices.

MrNinosan3h ago

Works great on my Portal while at work 👍

spicelicka58m ago

That's streaming off your PS5, not from the cloud. This is specifically referring to cloud gaming.

CrimsonWing692h ago

Can’t you, uh, do this on your phone?

Tacoboto2h ago

Sony doesn't yet have a web or app-based solution to stream games off their cloud service, the closest you may be able to get would be Remote Play if they allow cloud streaming during a Remote session.

And yes this applies to the Portal too.

anast2h ago

Blizzard is shoving this game everywhere. Diablo 4 is going to take an even bigger hit soon. Path of exile 2 is coming out and it looks insane.

UnbreakableAlex1h ago(Edited 1h ago)

I completed it on gamepass. Thanks God I dint pay it full price. It plays like a lazy mobile game. I am not a pro diablo gamer (Diablo 1 was the only one I completed) but D4 has no atmosphere, no creepy feeling and soundtrack like the first one and its so easy, I managed to not buy any weapon and had 4 Million Credits on level 55. I always used the same 4 attacks from the beginning and died maybe 10-15 times. It's so easy, wtf. I remember D1 to be pretty hard.
WTF happened? Is Diablo 3 also that bad?

jwillj2k414m ago

Diablo 3 was my first Diablo game. I had to use the mailbox cheats to keep it interesting.

Sony Patents To Prevent You From In-Game Harassment By Reading Your Emotions

A new patent recently published by Sony wants to gather biometric data of gamers to track whether one is being harassed using AI tools.

Profchaos11d ago (Edited 11d ago )

I hope this is one of those patents that never comes to fruition.

I already dislike the fact you can pay a significant amount for a online service buy associated games and content on said service and get banned from that service over potentially a misunderstanding the bans are already handed out for flimsy reasons

I'd rather see money invested in a ban that simply removes the offensive players ability to communicate with unknown players allow them to continue party chats with friends but not with Joe blow on cod.

exputers11d ago

Agreed. Blizzard recently banned a college Overwatch 2 player who's dependent for saying "shit." Pretty harsh.

Profchaos10d ago (Edited 10d ago )

How rediculas really. You can't say a word that's allowed in most PG films and prime time TV but the game is based around killing the enemy team using guns, explosives etc.

It's just backwards.

just_looken10d ago

What your talking about is called block list

In 2006 a spaceship dropped of the playstation 3/xbox 360 i say that that generation was the last great gen with game functions/tech that has yet to comeback

Anyhow the playstation 3 if you block listed a id they could not talk to you in chatroom with either text or voice. But that was pre mind fucked 2018 when people were more human than sheep.

But hey gta 6 is coming out billion dollar budget without a single player custom character creator and without singeplayer coop off/online something saints row 1-3 had on the xbox 360.

z2g11d ago

Take my social security and bank account numbers too! Here’s a picture of my wife and our address.

phoenixwing11d ago

Cmon where's the pictures of your children. Don't hold out on them.

H911d ago

At this rate I feel Sony will eventually sell a room to play games in it where they can monitor your every breath

jambola11d ago

I genuinely get a bit worried sometimes when a friend says something that could be offensive In a party
Because I have no trouble believing some bans would happen when in a private party for saying something wrong

SegaSaturn66911d ago

I want them to censor erotic content by measuring my groin temperature so i dont get too distracted while playing black ops 2.

Popsicle11d ago

Terrible idea. Not only do I not consent to providing my biometric data, the potential for mishandling biometric data is almost a certainty. Positive stress and negative stress can produce similar changes in biometrics. Interpreting the precise emotion a person is feeling is not only invasive but could be easily misconstrued. I hope this never comes to fruition.

Sony Could Increase Your Game's Difficulty If It Sees You Complain About It

Sony has recently published a new patent that wants to dynamically handle the games' difficulty and gameplay based on the player's emotions.

jznrpg11d ago

This is something I might use. Sometimes I play some good games but they don’t have difficulty option and are a little too easy.

Profchaos11d ago

Souls games will be like that players struggling make it harder

PassNextquestion11d ago (Edited 11d ago )

I think if used correctly it could work well

jambola11d ago

cool idea
cool idea for horror games especially
the way it's explained here sounds like it could never be forced hopefully, so that's ok with me
